Mobile users more vulnerable to e-mail phishing scams

     Last week the news spread that an e-mail marketing company, Epsilon, was hacked. Email adresses and names, such as those of large companies, have been stolen. These companies have sent emails warning costumers of the fake emails. John Sutter from CNN has reported that these phishing attempts are sneakier and more affective way of hacking people. This is becoming a big problem for mobile email users, as they are more susceptible to this. People are trying to stop this problem by not opening emails that look suspicious.
